This looks great! Congrats on the result thus far.  

Thanks. Really happy with it!

Feeling really happy with the result so far, if it improves from here then amazing but if not then I'm 100% happy.

Note - these pictures were taken after washing and drying my hair (hair dryer) along with a small application of minox on the crown. This tends to help with the appearance (illusion) of density.

Month 10 Update

Here it is, month 10 progress so far.

Can't wait for the next update! Looks fantastic. Demirsoy does really great work and is affordable - I find he doesn't dense pack, but he still gets fantastic results and is generally able to cover large parts of the head. Really satisfying seeing your old pics and your new ones side-by-side!

Update coming soon, been mega busy at work but the progress is still looking good. Not a huge change from last month but still happy 🤞

I completely agree with you, he does great work and gets solid results. Rarely dense results or anything out of this world but he produces some great overall work, conservative hair lines and he won't use grafts up for the sake of it. 

He literally said no to me when I asked to fill the widows peaks in more, I'm so glad he did. 

Thanks again 🙏

Month 10 update coming this week.

🤞

Check you out !!! 
 

Been an enjoyable read through your thread just now, very impressed with your honesty with the shower and harsh lighting pics (they look fine) and very happy for you getting these fantastic results at just 9 months!!
 

Hair looks really nice and full of volume now, and IMO your hairline is great as it is. 
 

How old are you if you don’t mind me asking ? 

Thanks, appreciate the kind words.

I tried to show honest progress as possible, as tempting as it is to choose the most flattering photos!

I'm 30 years old 👍

Just gets better and better ! Looks like a full result already. But you still have months to go 👌

Thanks John. I'm really pleased with how well it's progressing. 

Even if this was the end result I'd be mega happy!

9 Month Update

Hi all, here is my 9 month update.

I'm very happy with the results and will continue to post updates up to month 12. I'll most likely leave a 6 month gap unless anything changes significantly in either direction.

Still using fin 1mg daily and minox twice daily.

The pictures were taken after drying my hair and applying minox.

Hi all

I'll post my 9 month update ASAP 

Happy with the progress 

Excellent result no doubt

It looks good through out. The wet pics really show balanced density.

Thanks mate. I wanted to show the wet / under direct light pictures to really demonstrate the true result.

I think Demirsoy produces some very consistent results but they're usually a 7.5/10 every time. There are the odd excellent and or below average results, but he seems to knock out 'good' results all the time. 

I think I chose him for that reason, I felt like it would be a decent result with little risk of a bad result and a tiny chance of a very good one. If that makes sense?!

@GLHF For me, you look very good.

Thanks dude. 

Let me know what you all think, I'm really curious to see what other people think of it so far?

I'm really happy with the before and after so far, but I'm not sure if I'm seeing it with rose tinted glasses on because I'm desperately hoping for a good result.

And finally...

This is when I washed my hair with 0 drying, the pictures were taken immediately after washing and rinsing my hair so it's soaked. Just so you guys can see it under the harshest of conditions.

I find that using a hair dryer to dry my hair helps massively with the appearance of my hair. Along with minox foam which I swear makes hair look thicker after application??

This is after applying minoxidil foam to the crown, which I find helps create a greater illusion of density.

8 MONTH UPDATE

Hello all, here is my update for month 8. 

Feeling really good about the progress so far and I'm still hopeful to see some more improvements.

These pictures were taken immediately after washing and drying my hair with no styling products**

8 month update coming tomorrow! 

Looks good so far.

Also had my FUE carried out by Demirsoy and I'm really pleased with the result.

The hairline he has given you looks great.

Looking good so far

Mate if this procedure is anything to go by you can safely assume you would be able to get another 1k grafts into the hairline to increase density and lower it a little. I can see by your pics why you'd want to, I'm in the same boat actually at 7 months. But in saying that, you look great already!

Thanks, my plan is to wait a few more years to see what happens with my hair re further loss.

The plan would be to top the crown up if it needs it (which i think it might) and also fill the corners of my hairline in slightly, while also increasing the density on the hairline.

At the minute though I'm really happy with it, ill only go ahead with a second fue if I see further loss. Whether that's 2 years or 10 years, that's when ill probably go for it.
